Ubisoft Bordeaux, previously known for its support role in major Ubisoft titles, is now taking a significant leap forward within the Assassin's Creed franchise. After successfully helming the development of Assassin's Creed Mirage, a title that harkened back to the series' roots and was met with open arms (and open eyes) by critics, the studio is embarking on a new chapter in the Assassin's Creed saga. The latest development marks a pivotal shift for Ubisoft Bordeaux as it establishes itself as one of the lead developers of Ubisoft's best-selling franchise.
The appointment of Rik Godwin, a relatively new but talented writer in the gaming industry, as the lead writer at Ubisoft Bordeaux, is central to this transition. Godwin's previous work includes titles such as Harmony: The Fall of Reverie and Under the Waves, known for their strong narrative focus. His expertise in crafting immersive as well as character-driven stories aligns perfectly with the narrative-rich environment of Assassin's Creed. Godwin's role at Ubisoft Bordeaux will involve steering the storytelling aspect of the new project, a task that seems well suited to his skill set, especially in the context of the Assassin's Creed universe, which, despite all the memes, is still famed for its deep and intricate narratives spanning various historical periods.
The direction Ubisoft Bordeaux will take with this new Assassin's Creed project remains under wraps. However, given the success of Mirage and its return to the series' original gameplay and storytelling style, Ubisoft Bordeaux might continue in this vein. There's also the possibility of exploring new narrative structures or gameplay elements since the franchise allows so much creative freedom. The studio's recent success and Ubisoft's confidence in their capabilities suggest that whatever direction they take, it will likely be a fresh and exciting addition to the Assassin's Creed universe.
